TORPEDOTUBE
Torpedo tube
A torpedo tube is a device for launching torpedoes. There are two main types of torpedo tube: underwater tubes fitted to submarines and some surface ships, and deck-mounted units installed aboard surface vessels. Deck-mounted torpedo launchers are usually designed for a specific type of torpedo, while submarine torpedo tubes are general-purpose launchers, and are often also capable of deploying mines and cruise missiles. Most modern launchers are standardised on a diameter for light torpedoes or a diameter for heavy torpedoes, although other sizes of torpedo tube have been used: see Torpedo classes and diameters.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Torpedo tube
